I remember idiots on 610 talking about Keller like he was going to be the Mahomes of the Royals in 2019.
Mahomes just came off an MVP season, 50 TDs and 5000 YDs, and AFCCG at home in which we should have won.
Keller coming off a season in which his club finished 58-104, but he had a 3.08 which is decent, but his peripherals looked like trash. 140 innings, 96 strikeouts, 50 walks, 6.2 SO/9, 3.2 BB/9, 1.304 WHIP, 3.55 FIP, and a whopping 2.6 WAR.
I get that he was a 22 year old coming from AA, but the amount of hype he got for just a pretty good season was unreal. Hell he was basically just a younger Brian Bannister. They had very similar rookie years.
